CPSC and Gardener's Supply Company are recalling the Rope Candle and Holder (34-911)
CPSC Recall1 injuries · 2005-02-18 · 05542
Hazards
The candle has a clamp (vise) that leads the end of the rope candle at the top. When clamped properly it is supposed to self-extinguish the candle when the burning wick meets the metal clamp (vise). The clamp (vise) does not always sever the wax close to the wick and does not always enable the wick to self-extinguish. This can lead to the flame continuing down into the coiled section of the candle, which can then ignite and cause fire damage.
